For those of you that have received the Parish Newsletter you will already know this, but for those that haven’t yet there is a letter from Bishop Richard circulated with it. The letter is about the proposed appointment of a vicar for Salehurst and Hurst Green. After much discussion by both PCC`s the advert will appear in the Church Times and on the Chichester Diocese Website this week end. Everyone is praying for a great response and an opportunity to appoint the right candidate for both parishes.
